[QUOTE="devildoc, post: 179721, member: 5615"] If I was going to put a shopping list together for a new shooter to get started reloading it would include the following. Lee Classic Cast Press: $60-70 Good powder measure with stand: $60-100 good beam scale: $20-60 RCBS hand primer: $25 Lee collet neck sizer 2die set with Redding body die ~ $30-40 Harbor Freight tumbler + lizard bedding(crushed walnut) $35 RCBS Case trimmer $60(manual)-200(power) case lube+pad, loading block, primer brushes, Chamfer tool~$30 Now to just get started you probably don't need the tumbler and you could substitute a much cheaper trimmer setup like the lee to just get going. Which would put you around $200 retail, plus another $50 for a pound of powder and a box of bullets and primers. All of the initial equipment can be had for much less off of Ebay, if you're willin' to spend some time shopping. So I'd say as little as $200 initial investment will get you up and running enough to load 100 rounds. [/QUOTE]
